Greetings potential Workshop Presenter!
First and foremost, thank you for your interest in participating in this year’s AEE-SE conference as a presenter. As in years past, our presentations are an integral part of our annual conference by continuing to advance the field of experiential education.
THEME: "EGGxtraordinary Adventure", inspired by the metaphor with which we ended our 2026 conference (What will you "hatch" this year?") and the Oscar Wilde quote: An egg is always an adventure; the next one may be different. We use the egg inspired metaphor to explore the 6 AEE values (global community, adventure & challenge, reflective leadership, social justice, the natural world, and creative play).
